Hi,

just read this one at Glow threads: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/0%25...2677697/tm.htm

check SHOGUNMST´s last comments and easy fix (this one is for 91FX with aluminium needle valve body on back plate...)

cheers; Jari

BTW, stumbled on this Tipo kit last night on Ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW

There when my bid. Now that the word is out we could
be looking at $400 or $500 for that kit. Thanks for letting
the cat out of the bag.

That's okay. I already have one NIB anyway. But it would be
nice to have one to fly and a backup still in the box.

I am restoring an MK Arrow. The plane is about 23 to 24 years old..maybe a little older. It has only flown about 3 or 4 times. But due to all the hangar rash I sanded down the fiberglass fuse and I am about half way done painting it. should finish recovering the wings tonight. Then will probably paint some trim on the monokote. Has Robart pnuematic retracts that I need to get working. Don't know much about them. Finally got the super tiger 61 rear exhaust tuned pipe dialed in on the bench. It screams. I will try to post some pics soon. I have to decide on a radio setup with the dual elevators. I don't think I can get to the back of the narrow fuse for the DEPS system.

Is that the red head or gold head OPS?

I went out and shot my bullet today...............Believe it or not, I bought this plane for less than $100 bucks. It took me a while to get the pump squared away, but now it flys like a dream.....a really fast dream!

I call those deals the gift of the 2M grape Kool-Aid! Many of the 2M guys want to dump these cool rocket ships to make room for 2M stuff. Lucky us! Although if the rocket ships get on ebay they aren’t so cheap!

Hi All . .

Does any one have a link or pictures of Phil Kraft's World Championship winning Kwik-Fly MK3 ? I am sure it was orange with blue trim . .

Thanks. Jeff

Yes, Phil's Kwik-Fly was orange with blue trim. Larry Leonard flew the same paint scheme when he won the U.S. Nationals.
